Bernie Sanders actually said...

"If confirmed, I intend to lead the FDA as an impartial and passionate advocate for the public health."

"If confirmed, I will commit to working with the agency's staff to quickly get up to speed on the regulatory history related to menu labeling."

"I believe the agency can play an important role on this important issue by taking steps to improve product competition."

"part of the FDA's mission is to make medicines--this is the FDA mission not Bernie Sanders' idea--'More effective, safer, and more affordable.'"
